·Well I am interested about any catalogs that contain the Ultra-chron models so the timeframe should be from 1967-77.

··Ωf Jury memberWell, in terms of 1972 models that were offered in Japan, you're in luck! A dazzling array...

I'm not sure if the rule of thumb extended to Longines-Wittnauer watches, but in Switzerland the numbers there would be the last three digits of the movement serial number.

··Ωf Jury memberSorry, but I don't believe that I have any catalogues (or images) from that period. Very nice case, though!

·What is the reference of no.3 here? Love that case. 8352 doesn’t seem to return useful results.

··His Holiness Puer Surdus356 is a unique case number within the reference 5863. It is not connected to the serial number.
It's a unique case number but not a serial number? I'm not sure I understand, please elaborate. Do you mean the serial number of the movement?

That's what made me want to buy it!
I did find a similar one here (though that one appears to have had its dial cleaned, which lightened up the background but lost some of the print). I didn't find another on the web with that case.

I thought the unique case number went on the underside of one of the lugs? At least, that's been the case (pun not intended) with every Swiss cased Longines I've had (admittedly a rather small sample). Unique case number on a lug, and last portion of the movement serial inside the caseback under the reference number.
